Ugh so I'm not alone. Yeah I have been going back to 32 bit version as well. its at least playable between the crashes. I have noticed since the PoF update my crashes have gotten more frequent. My guildmates don't even ask what happened to me anymore when I disappear in the middle of something then pop several mins later. @DocBerto.5790 I too feel like loading data is a huge problem. I used to be the first in a zone compared to my party members when I played on bootcamp, but in 32 and even worse in 64bit they are always like "omg where have you been, did you have to load the entire map??" because thats what it feals like.

So far I have played the Bootcamp version, the Mac 32 bit, and the new Mac 64. 1. The bootcamp version works like a dream, lets me push all my settings to max and play the game like it's meant to be played, however, its really annoying to switch operating systems everytime I wanna hop in the game. 2. The 32-bit mac version has always been a toss-up. Sometimes it works, other times it crashes, most notably in world events or WVW. Any time where there is a large number of players present the game just crashes no matter how low I set the settings. It also takes extremely long to load into different zones. Which is frustrating because on the bootcamp version on the very same system zones load super fast.Recently I keep getting a coherent host crash/error message upon launching the game. Sometimes I need to attempt to launch the game 5+ times before it will work. And then once I'm in well...I will for sure randomly crash at least every 20 min. I don't have any issues with lag or low FPS on this version, just crashing constantly. 3. I was hoping the 64 bit version would be the answer but nope! :( it takes forever to load the game, even the character selection I get a black screen for a while, loading screen for zones take forever and then once in game it takes a while for all the ui elements to even load. Moving around is impossible as I lag and stutter all over the place. Just simply turning my camera can drop my fps down to 1-3 fps which is unplayable. I want to get the Path of Fire expansion but I have no intention of doing so until I can reliably play the game. These are my specs.
